| Introduction | I was made in the 70s--I guess that makes me a Gen X kid. I was raised on Rural Route 2 on the outskirts of Hamilton. The Atari 2600 was cutting edge entertainment when I was a kid and I had a drawer full of OP t-shirts from Eaton's--graduated from Highland Secondary School and went on to a BA from the University of Windsor...been working ever since. Love my sports, love my news, love my cars and love my music. Do some reading when I can and see the odd movie...I guess I like fairly simple things in life--a good cup of coffee, a cold beer, and a summer night at the ballpark. |
